Salisbury Cathedral; a really big church (i'll remember all my life that the spire is 404 ft. high, thanks Per) in a small town. cute shops. great gardens. Peg's question has yet to be answered; something about the origins of the name of a popular American grade school hot lunch. this is one of only two complete group shots, lucky we had Per to take this one for us. pick up some sandwiches, back on the van again!

I am the Ex 747th Mayor of Salisbury (1997-1998). You mentioned Salisbury in your weblog as a “small town”. We are not a small town – we are technically a City and proud of it.
Hope you enjoyed your visit. The picture of you and the girls on the left (next to Sally Lunns teashop) was taken in Baaath.
If you want excellent single bed and breakfast accommodation for the artistically inclined next time you are in Salisbury – try my mother in law at http://www.crabapplecottage.co.uk

oops! picture corrected.
no offense intended, the use of the words ‘small town’ was not in reference to population numbers, but to the feeling…which was a compliment. (to folks from downtown Chicago, as the girls are, a city or town under 175,000 is small…and all the more pleasurable for it).LikeLike
